Abstract:The division operation is not frequent relatively in traditional applications, but it is increasingly indispensable and important in many modern applications. In this paper, the implementation of modified signed-digit (MSD) floating-point division using Newton-Raphson method on the system of ternary optical computer (TOC) is studied. Since the addition of MSD floating-point is carry-free and the digit width of the system of TOC is large, it is easy to deal with the enough wide data and transform the division o… Show more
